The home of swing and bebop for some, "The City of Fountains" to others, Kansas City is different things to different people. Music enthusiasts are drawn to the jazz clubs and old haunts of famous musicians such as Charlie Parker and Count Basie. With more fountains than Rome, there is ample opportunity for scenic strolling from fountain to fountain. Stop along the way to discover interesting neighborhoods and browse through eclectic shops. Families are particularly attracted to the city because of its child-friendly events and venues. Science City features hands-on exhibits including a mock television studio where kids can deliver a weather forecast, while the Zoo houses impressive African and Australian exhibits plus an IMAX Theater. The city's museums cover everything from the history of jazz music to a celebration of African American baseball players. Once a trading post for pioneers heading to the Western United States, today Kansas City is a burgeoning metropolis with activities and attractions for visitors of all ages and interests.

Coolest store ever. It's in an old warehouse in the Westbottoms of KCMO (I'd love to know the history) and has the most amazing vibe. Many different things to choose from.

I met the DelBrenna team when visiting Cortona, Italy this year and was just taken aback by the richness of color and texture in their gold and silver chains and beautiful pendants. I brought home a one of a kind sunflower and dragonfly pendant reflecting nature’s wonder and a beautiful gold chain. The young lady in the store gift wrapped everything so beautifully and shared that they now have a store in the US! Since my return, I have been working with Laura and her team in the Kansas City location to create true conceierge jewelry. I just received my two tone toggle necklace from Italy that Laura helped me create. If you are a seeking that one of a kind special piece for yourself, a special occasion or a gift, look no further. Both the jewelry and the experience will be lovely.
